Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor

 

This ad claims that drinking Pabst will calm your nerves, aid in sleep, and help digestion. OK fine. I’ll give you the first two. But a digestive aid? Really?? The only thing a Pabst product has ever done for my digestive tract is burn holes in it. Jesus, just thinking about a Pabst right now is giving me the shits. Yikes, I gotta go.

Why do old ads have to be so creepy and weird. And inherently awesome.

This is a photo of Athletic Field in Milwaukee, Wis. which was renamed Borchert Field in 1930. The Brewers played here until 1952 when County Stadium was built. This photo was taken sometime between the year 1900-1911. I really love the awesome ads painted to the brick walls. Those are classic names in the Mil. Gaffney’s, Blatz, Edelweiss… Thanks to @MuchoMilwaukee for the info!
